            Abstract : 
A numerical technique is presented that may be used to predict the current induced on a thin metallic body of revolution excited by an electromagnetic pulse. Examples are given. Introduced here is the use of the radiation condition in a finite difference solution. This development alleviates the requirement that finite difference techniques be applied to a bounded region of space.
